Perfect Health: The Complete Mind/Body Guide

Author(s): MD Deepak Chopra
Publisher: Harmony
Date : February 20, 2001
Pages : 0
Format : Mp3
OCR : N
Quality : EXCELLENT
Language : English
ISBN-10 : 0609806947
ISBN-13 : 9781863252928

A decade ago, Deepak Chopra, M.D., wrote Perfect Health, the first practical guide to harnessing the healing power of the mind, which became a national bestseller. The book described how breakthroughs in physics and medicine were underscoring the validity of a 5,000-year-old medical system from ancient India known as Ayurveda (”the knowledge of life span” in Sanskrit). Perfect Health went on to describe how to apply the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda to everyday life. In celebration of this classic work we have created this new edition, revised and updated to include the latest medical research.

Although we experience our bodies as solid, they are in fact more like fires that are constantly being consumed and renewed. We grow new stomach linings every five days, for instance. Our skin is new every five weeks. Each year, fully 98 percent of the total number of atoms in our bodies is replaced. Ayurveda gives us the tools to intervene at this quantum level, where we are being created anew each day. Ayurveda tells us that freedom from sickness depends on contacting our own awareness, bringing it into balance, and then extending that balance to the body.

Perfect Health provides a complete step-by-step program of mind body medicine tailored to individual needs. A quiz identifies the reader’s mind body type: thin, restless Vata; enterprising, efficient Pitta; tranquil, steady Kapha; or any combination of these three. This body type becomes the basis for a specific Ayurvedic program of diet, stress reduction, neuromuscular integration, exercise, and daily routines. The result is a total plan, tailor-made for each individual, to reestablish the body’s essential balance with nature; to strengthen the mind body connection; and to use the power of quantum healing to transcend the ordinary limitations of disease and aging–in short, for achieving Perfect Health.

From AudioFile
Written and read by Deepak Chopra, M.D., this account of alternative healing comes from a seasoned, well-educated Western medical doctor. Chopra inspires us to discover the inner voices within ourselves to heal, transform and create a balanced state of all physical and psychological levels. Born and raised in India, Chopra also discusses aspects of Eastern culture. His soothing tone convinces the listener that he’s found inner peace and we can, too. His conviction is personified in each word. B.J.P. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine –This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

From Publishers Weekly
California photographercollege teacher Johnson was a friend and follower of the late Ansel Adams, whose development of the “zone system” for black-and-white film exposure and processing was a major contribution to American photographic art. The author here undertakes instruction in that system without “highly technical explanations that confuse.” Clearly and logically, with illustrations and helpful diagrams, he tells how to “pre-visualize” a picture and explains zone system requirements of contrast control, using a zone scale of gray areas linking the subject to shutter-speed and exposure choices, and similar analysis of elements in a scene to be coordinated with later developing and printing. A basic photography primer and glossary of terms are appended for reference. This is a job well done, but as is perhaps inevitable, the subject remains complicated.

Review
Praise for previous editions: “The Practical Zone System is one of the easier books to understand on the zone system for better black-and-white photographs… Its takes the complex issues of the zone system and removes the calcualtions and just gives you what you need to know.”–The Midwest Book Review “I have found this new book on the zone system to be one of the best I have seen so far, and as an added bonus, it is even easy to understand…” – Apogee Photo Magazine Nov. 2006 Diagrams and illustrations show readers how to previsualize a picture and master the Zone System requirements of contrast control. It explores use of the system in digital photography.-PC Photo, February 2007 The book includes testing methods, test results for 10 major films in Kodak’s XTOL developers, an overview of color photography, a listing of Internet resources for professional and fine art photographers, a primer on basic photography, and examples of how commercial photographers use the Zone System in their work.-Studio Photography, February 2007

The author, Henry Ernest Dudeney, was England’s greatest maker of puzzles, especially those of more than trivial mathematical interest. He began his career in the late 1800s by contributing short problems to newspapers and magazines, and soon had his own puzzle page, “Perplexities,” in The Strand Magazine. This book is a compilation of some of Dudeney’s most challenging conundrums (culled from two printed collections, MODERN PUZZLES and PUZZLES AND CURIOUS PROBLEMS and runs the gamut from arithmetical, algebraic, and geometrical problems to game and domino puzzles, combinatorial and topological problems, and match puzzles. The answer section includes editorial footnotes, which in some instances point out how a solution has been improved or a problem extended by later experts. It is a tribute to Dudeney’s genius that he was able to invent problems of such depth that it took decades for others to find ways to improve on his answers. Black-and-white illustrations.
